Steve 'Swanny' Swann sings killer vocals for us in our reggae tunes, white man can sing good reggae.

"Apparently white man can't sing reggae (sorry!)"

Ooops!

I meant that comment only as a sarcastic joke referring to an earlier thread where this very point was discussed at rather tedious length.

Now I am really regretting making that comment here.

Can we get back on topic please and stick to dream teams!

Yeah! That topic has been discussed to DEATH

Why is this in off topic? Surely this is a reggae discussion?

Yep.
Back in again.

More dream teams please !!

I have enjoyed reading this thread!

Irie!

Well my dreamteam is:

The whole crew of Ras Michael & the sons of Negus!
Hehe, is dat cheatin?

Only it will be called: "Fred & the sons of Negus"!
Or.... "Ras Michael & the sons of Negus introducing Fred on the congas". Phew, long name!
Maybe.... "Fred and the Rasfamily" is better.

And yes, Kiddus I is back in di crew!
